Creamed Italian Cipollini Onions Recipe ~ Fruits and Veggies Monday @lenasveganliving

This is my entry for the #fruitsandveggiesmonday contest held by @lenasveganliving.

This is a very rich side dish...Creamed Italian Cipollini onions.

Nice small bite size Italian Cipollini onions that are sweet. Carmelized in butter with a heavy cream sauce. Hint of garlic and fresh parsley and a SPLASH of peas!

You can serve these with any meal. I love the flavor, creaminess, slight sweetness and richness from these little beautiful onions. I use garlic and parsley to flavor but you could add any herbs or spices of your choice. I have used basil, thyme, sage and rosemary in the past. The great thing about this recipe is that you can "make it your own". Make what you like and how you like. Enjoy.
